Happy New Year from the NNPDF!

During these final days of 2010, we at the National Niemann-Pick Disease Foundation give thanks for individuals like you who are vital to fulfilling our mission.

Thank you for being part of our efforts to offer support to families and to further research into treatments and a cure for Niemann-Pick Disease!

We’d like to humbly remind our generous supporters that a year-end gift to the NNPDF can reduce one’s income tax obligation while providing meaningful support for the work of the foundation and offering the gift of hope for all those suffering from NPD.

The NNPDF gratefully accepts direct financial donations, United Way and Combined Federal Campaign contributions, gifts of stock, in-kind donations, and planned gifts such as bequests, beneficiary designations or life insurance policies.

If you’d like to designate your gift in honor of a loved one, the NNPDF will gladly send out a card to the honoree acknowledging your gift.

One item of special note — a late-breaking tax measure allows IRA year-end donations until January 31st. This key charitable tax break took effect December 17th, allowing those age 70 1/2 or older to make tax-free 2010 year-end charitable gifts of up to $100,000 from their IRA accounts up until January 31st, 2011.
